more than i deserve

are you happy?  i think i am, but i find it incredibly difficult to feel that way.  it’s self-justified in the usual existentialist way, in that i wonder if i ever can be happy.  what with all the misfortune in the world, sure…  or, more realistically, with the looming concept of my own mortality.  there have been times where i truly believed i would live forever.  either through some biological fluke that makes me ultra-special-cool+3, or via the convenience of quantum theory.  eg - the fact of my existence, and the observation of my existence, has put into motion the need for that perspective to continue; thus, in my lifetime immortality will be developed.

of late, i’m having a harder time believing in it.  i guess i’m having a harder time believing in permanence.

here’s tom with the weather…

Believing in immortality is just a way to justify being lazy. Why bother doing something now when I’m just gonna live forever anyway?

You *are* Ultra-Special-Cool+3. Unfortunately for you, that doesn’t qualify you for immortality until you fill out form IMM-01EZ.

If you want happiness, that’ll cost you extra.
